this is the fourth contract since 2003 continuing energy efficiency programs in san francisco. the funds are authorized by the california public utilities commission through pg&e and implemented by the department of the environment. in 2006 the program is expanded and named to energy watch to be used by all local governments and the pg&e's territory. and over the years the program has become extremely successful enabling san francisco to receive additional funds to increase our activities and serve more san francisco rate payers. during the last program cycle from january 2010 through december 2012, pg&e increased its funding to the energy watch program from an original 11.5 million to just under 20 million. of that amount, 11.3 million went directly to 3200 businesses and multi-family units throughout the city to pay for energy improvements. just to give you a sense of what the savings have meant for customers, we have reduced the city's carbon emissions by over 52,000 tons and that's equivalent to taking 83 cars off the road and powering almost 24,000 san francisco residents
